ALERT - ECM Malfunction due to Premature Corrosion
While driving, van started loosing power, brought it to my mechanic, he found the ECM was not sending power to the fuel injector. He called Nissan who said the ECM's have started corroding and most likely a hole in it; the location of the ECM on the 2004's has caused rusting problems, in newer models they have repositioned it to elimate the problem. I towed the van to Nissan, they said ECM is now working but yes is rusted and should be replaced, and I'm at 135,000KMs no longer under warranty, and part ($1200)is on a 3 week back order, so had to go get the van and park in my driveway until the part arrives. QUESTION - if Nissan are aware that the ECM's are rusting out prematurely due to bad part placement, why keep it a secret. I just bought out the lease last year, had I known of this problem I would have had the ECM replaced under warranty or not bought the van.
The dealership says nothing they can do, Nissan Canada says nothing they can do.
ALERT: if you have the 2004, get the ECM looked at ASAP, if signs of rust or corrosion, get it replaced before you hit 130,000KM warranty mark.
